Bug 26827 again (about secure-su)

1998-10-19 Thread mummertpartner_meskesm
I checked some more on this bug report and IMO we should simply close it. It seems secure-su does exactly what you average Unix su does. It certainly does not do all that fancy stuff gnu su does. So I think people needing this stuff should make sure they use gnu su instead. As long as you do

eterm problem

1998-10-19 Thread mummertpartner_meskesm
The eterm package in slink comes without a MAIN configuration file it seems. I´ve installed eterm-0.8.6 and eterm-background from incoming but now I don´t get any background images anymore. Michael -- Dr. Michael Meskes | Th.-Heuss-Str. 61, D-41812 Erkelenz | Go SF49ers! Senior-Consultant

problems with latest x version in incoming

1998-10-19 Thread mummertpartner_meskesm
I´m afraid there are a lot of them. In fact installing them broke my system completely since I need X. Here's what I still remember: 1) xdm is started regardless whether it is confugured to do so. I have no-start-xdm in my config file but still it starts up. 2) some preinsts call getreal() but

libgtop0 now installs libraries with soname 1. Strange. In particular that breaks lost of gnome apps depending on soname 0. If this is brought back keep in mind that gtop has to be recompiled too since it depends on 1. Michael -- Dr. Michael Meskes | Th.-Heuss-Str. 61, D-41812 Erkelenz |

Help needed

Is there anyone out there who could do an upload for me? I have a new better iceconf package ready for upload but I´m sitting on a mail-only account. So I could mail the package to someone who then copies it to incoming on master. Michael -- Dr. Michael Meskes | Th.-Heuss-Str. 61,

The problem is that I wrote the program in the first place... And it isn't tcl, its perl.. (with perl-tk as the gui-lib). Oops I messed up the language. Should have checked more carefully. But still would you mind someone else making the program fit the Debian guidelines? I

Okay, Matthias also agrees with my version. Let´s see if the other LyX guys say. Could we get this into the LyX package ASAP? Who´s in charge now? Mark? Michael -- Weitergeleitet von MummertPartner MeskesM/D/ExternalStaff/WLB on 12.10.98 16:02 ---

LyX KDE

I might be able to get a similar license agreement for KDE as the one I send for LyX. Would that be enough to get at least major parts of KDE back on the site? I have no idea how much we would have to keep out. I know kghostview and kdvi, but other than that? Since I use Gnome I cannot simply
